Forecast

Today, small pressure differences will determine the weather scene, which means that the air will become stationary and that neither high nor low pressure will be dominant. Our weather will therefore be neither fish nor fowl: longer sunny spells and cloudy periods will alternate, with showers being very rare. The wind will be weak at all altitudes and temperatures will be around the seasonal average.

Multi-Cache - Spaziergang durch Flaurling

Dear geocachers!

We have used the Municipality of Flaurling's cultural guide as a starting point to lead you through this attractive town near Telfs, in the Inntal valley in Tirol. The town was originally settled by the Bavarii and was first mentioned in the 7th century AD. Our tour through Flaurling will lead us past historical structures such as the Risschloss castle.

The walking tour will last approx. 1 to 1.5 hours.

Parking is available at:
